Creative Challenges

We’re launching a series of online challenges to inspire learners to think in new ways about our world. Each challenge will be led by expert presenters and thinkers including astronauts, writers, car designers and musicians. For school and home, deep-space thinking for everyone!

A white table is covered in colourful (red, yellow, green) plastic alphabet letters and numbers. In the middle, an ipad tablet shows one of Oliver Jeffers illustrations reading, 'If we shrank it all down so a single step took us to the moon', with a drawing of a leg and foot stepping off the moon.

A suite of Learning Resources designed by Oliver Jeffers, written by Professor Stephen Smartt and created by Nerve Centre will be free to download for schools across the UK and Internationally. All resources are curriculum mapped at Key Stage 2 and Key Stage 4.
